Common Problems Faced By Aquarium Owners and Operators Public aquariums have a unique set of corrosion-related obstacles to overcome, which must be addressed to avoid early-onset corrosion problems and mitigate corrosion if it does occur. Material selection and maintenance strategies are critical in this endeavor; however, the importance of corrosion education for designers and…
DetailsWhen someone asks about the burst pressure of pipe, the best answer is a theoretical one. Burst pressure is literally the pressure that a pressure vessel like pipe or tube can handle before rupturing or “bursting”. Environmental conditions and other factors can play a part in how a pipe will fail. Designing of a pressure…

DetailsPlasma cutting is a process that uses a jet of hot plasma to cut through nickel alloys, steel, aluminum, brass, copper and other conductive metals. Because of its high speed and precision cuts, plasma cutting has become a staple in the metals industry. BACKGROUND CHECK! YESTERDAY… The first plasma systems grew out of plasma…
Details“The conditions under which oil and gas are brought from their reservoirs to the surface can be outright hostile to many common materials used in fluid system components employed in the industry.” According to Dr. Gerhard Schiroky, potentially dangerous mechanisms including localized corrosion, stress corrosion cracking (SCC), and sulfide stress cracking (SSC) have become increasingly…
